Did you know that last year, lawmakers passed over $1 trillion in health funding cuts as part of H.R. 1. The most severe human and economic consequences of these cuts will not take effect until later this year, which is why we need to make our voices heard now.
Arkansas RAPPS applauds our co-entity, The Strilite Foundation for signing on as a supporter of the Seven Days in June: HEALTH IS PRIMARY which is a decentralized, nonpartisan, grassroots-driven campaign from June 1-7, 2026.
Arkansas RAPPS also believes that we all must join the fight to expose and push back against these cuts and their devastating impact on our healthcare infrastructure. Health cuts kill, and communities across America – from rural towns to large cities – are already paying the price.
There are over 50 organizations partnering for Seven Days in June – including UNITE HERE, AFL-CIO, SEIU, NMAC and many others who represent millions of Americans who demand answers.
These people-powered organizations amplifying the call to action: Health is not partisan. HEALTH IS PRIMARY. We've come 45 years into ending new HIV acquisition and these cuts are not acceptable.
It's clear to us that healthcare is not be seen as an entitlement but a right that everyone must have access to! Share your thoughts at [email protected] or reach out to [email protected] Do it today!!
